Ingredients
Chicken
To make the filling for your Buffalo Chicken Tacos, start with 2 cups of cooked and shredded chicken. You can use rotisserie chicken or boil your own. The key is tenderness so that it easily absorbs the buffalo sauce.
Buffalo Sauce
You will need 1/2 cup of buffalo sauce. Choose your favorite brand or make your own at home using hot sauce mixed with melted butter. This sauce gives the chicken its signature heat and flavor.
Taco Shells
Use 8 small corn or flour tortillas for your tacos. These shells are soft and pliable, making them perfect for holding all the tasty fillings while adding their own flavor to the dish.
Ranch Dressing
For an added layer of creaminess, you will need 1/2 cup of ranch dressing. This balances the spice from the buffalo sauce and adds a refreshing element to each bite.
Fresh Vegetables
Chop up 1 cup of lettuce and dice 1 medium tomato for toppings. These fresh ingredients provide crunch and color to your tacos while complementing the rich flavors of the filling.
